I think alot of people care, but what are you gonna do? Lift sanctions for one person? It's like those parents of that kid that Biden refused to meet with, and then called on the phone once the media gave him shit for it. What are you gonna do? Trade all of Ukraine for one guy?

It sucks but there is nothing that can be done. It's just bad all around.

People care, but theres very little that can be done and its at the worst possible time to happen. Unfortunately she attempted to leave Russia just a bit too late and it didnt help she was trying to travel with whats considered an illegal substance in their country.

It's debatable if she even did have an illegal substance.

Lisa Leslie literally just said the other day that the USA has asked everyone to remain calm so they dont give Russia more leverage with her.

do you really think the most political league in the nation would be quiet about this without reason ?

lol, you really think the US is going to go to war with Russia over an WNBA player? An NBA player like Lebron maybe. She's a nobody. They don't care.

Serial domestic abuser brings illegal drug into a country where they enforce drug laws, stupid enough to bring said drug to a damn airport and people act like there's some wrongdoing.

Serial domestic abuser
Seems like a disingenuous way to describe what Wiki seems to list as one fight between both her and her partner where both were physical, where both were arrested and after which they married. Not saying it's a good luck, but "serial abuser" is pretty strong.

Uh, the partner describe long history of fights, she was simply booked for one(and she's not even the only person Griner put hands on). Anyway, I said what I said.

FTR, I don't know anything about Griner prior to this event, I was just going off Wiki. Usually seems like it's pretty good at mentioning all instances of domestic violence for celebrities but maybe not.

I honestly find it more likely that they made it up/she was framed. Shes been hooping in Russia during the offseason for years, it makes no sense shed suddenly do something dumb like try to bring contraband through.

Source? I didnt hear any of this when I read about it. Griner did counseling after her charge (and her partner was also charged like someone said) and apologized for her actions. I dont see any reason to hold it against her.

i mean, break laws in another country and get punished by their laws. sucks to see, especially with this timing, but no one cares because that's just the way it is. that kid went to north korea and iirc was basically tortured to death and that didn't move the needle much, this won't either.
